Answer:

$1032.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

salary = $950 every two weeks

tax rate = 8%

let the initial pay be x

and let the pay after tax deduction be p

p= x-8/100x

Hence the equation for his pay is

p=x-0.08x-------------1

subsitute

950=x-0.08x

950= 0.92x

divide both sides by 0.92

x= 950/0.92

x=$1032.60

The employee make $1032.60 every two weeks before taxes

An inequality represents an infinite amount of numbers smaller than 8. Which inequality represents the situation?
-Dominant- [34]
X < 8

what this question is saying is that a number, x, can be anything, as long as it is smaller than 8.

x < 8 represents that this sentence. X could be 7, it could be -1, it could be anything smaller than 8, but it could not be 8 or anything greater than 8.

Help, please!!! Coordinate planes: find the distance. Thanks for helping!
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The answer would be 11.3

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is figure out how far one is from the other so from 7.8 I went back to 0 of course the Y coordinate stays the same. So then you get the -3.5 make it a positive so just 3.5 and then add to 7.8 to get 11.3

Hope this helped.

A brainliest is always appreciated.
